"Dog Law"
  by The Aquanaut
  - This Poem is a response to the poem riot ::shot # 51:: by 11th Wonduh



3/4's of a Hueman Being
does not equal a Man

Dog is Man's Best Friend

The Overseer's Officer
will bite us all until death

Eating justice from the table
Until no scraps are left

Every Slave in America
was Sold for a Price
the Amount of the Civil Suit
can now Purchase a Hueman's life

The Lawdog is hungry and protects his Own

Chewing Black Men like a Bone

My frist thougth twas that you had a typo and spelled human incorrectly but also thought that it could be a play on words and continued. I felt the impact of your new spelling by the time I reached the 5th stanza and had ingested what you were saying here. I must agree with all that you've stated - you really got me with "The Overseer's officer will bite us all until death" but then you knocked me down picked me up brushed me off and then knocked me down again when you wrote "Every Slave in Ame...
